Your dehumidifier works a bit like your refrigerator, except inside-out. But unlike you refrigerator it has a fan which draws air into itself. Most dehumidifiers can draw several thousands of cubic meters of air during a single day, with all the dusk, dust mites, fluff, dander and dog hair which comes with it!
Over time, this forms a thick insulative blanket over all the working parts of your dehumidifier, especially the fan itself, which will then run impaired and will lead to overheating of the compressor. This in turn leads to greater pressure in the system, pressure which the system was never intended to sustain. Gas leaks are usually the result. That's provided of course that the fan and compressor haven't already burned out, and haven't caused a fire in the process!
As you can see from the above, regular
checks and inspection of your dehumidifier are therefore essential, that's apart from checking of pipe joints, compressor wear, and system efficiency and correct humidistat function.
